That’s a big win.

A perfect final quarter, game management was outstanding.

Biggest worry is the mounting injuries but on the plus side we’re 5-1 and the top NFC seed as it stands!

Just incredible from Baker Mayfield.

A reminder that Baker Mayfield is currently the best player in the NFL right now.

Now all we need to do is learn to DEFEND.

Great to get a bit of breathing space with that Johnson score but why the hell have we attempted a two point play there?

Just take extra and move on.

Our defending over the top as well is poor yet again.

The lead secured but that’s two big missed catches by Emeka Egbuka. Feel that we should be at least three points better off than what we currently are…

Did a poll on Instagram about this a few months ago. Most people said bacon but I actually think they’re just as good as each other. The scampi ones aren’t quite as strong these days which is probably better for those courting.

Sat and watched Jaws for the thousandth time tonight and enjoyed it just as much as the first time I saw it. 50 years old and it’s faultless.

The soundtrack, Robert Shaw’s monologue as Quint, the building of suspense.

Absolutely perfect.

Impressive you’ve lasted that long Billy.

I can barely manage 15 minutes.

As someone who knows nothing about league, that was brilliant.

Hull KR win their first title in forty years.

Thoroughly deserved too.

Blasphemy.

Yawn.

Don’t watch enough rugby league but every single time there Grand Final is on it looks nothing short of one of the best spectacles in sport.
